It is particularly well-suited to hilly garden soils, drought-resistant, and highly productive under intensive farming, bringing high economic efficiency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"642\" data-end=\"1049\"><strong data-start=\"642\" data-end=\"676\">Morphological Characteristics:<\/strong><br data-start=\"676\" data-end=\"679\" \/>The tree grows upright or spreads out with drooping branches. The branches are twisted and dense. Leaves are alternate, oval or elongated elliptical, 2\u20134 cm long, dark green, glossy on the upper surface, with three distinct longitudinal veins and clearly serrated edges. Flowers are small, have five petals, light yellow, and grow in clusters of 2\u20133 in the leaf axils.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1051\" data-end=\"1285\"><strong data-start=\"1051\" data-end=\"1082\">Ecological Characteristics:<\/strong><br data-start=\"1082\" data-end=\"1085\" \/>This tree is easy to grow and adapts well to various soil types.
